I was a big Korn fan in my early teens. I lost interest after I decided they had become shit (namely with the release of 'Take A Look In The Mirror'), and haven't really followed them since. So, it came as news to me when I was browsing Amazon and discovered Head's book. Apparently Head had left Korn and found Jesus somewhere, how curious. I abandoned this book after 100 pages, I couldn't read anymore self-pity from a dysfunctional millionaire.

This guy is a selfish jackass. I believe it takes I was a big Korn fan in my early teens. I lost interest after I decided they had become shit (namely with the release of 'Take A Look In The Mirror'), and haven't really followed them since. So, it came as news to me when I was browsing Amazon and discovered Head's book. Apparently Head had left Korn and found Jesus somewhere, how curious. I abandoned this book after 100 pages, I couldn't read anymore self-pity from a dysfunctional millionaire.

This guy is a selfish jackass. I believe it takes a certain kind of jackass to 'find God' when you're 35 and a millionaire, but even if you forget that bit, he's still a jackass. From the early pages he tells you about his troubled home life, where his Dad used to shout a lot. His dad also bought him a guitar, gave him a job in the garage they owned, paid for him to go to college, and let him use his 'mancave' which had all sorts of traumatic amenities, like a pool table. Then he tells you he was an alcoholic and a drug addict for 90 pages. Starting when he was in high school and he had alcohol problems that would cause him to get drunk. On the weekends.

Then he takes drugs sometimes. And then he tells us he beat his girlfriend. Not only that, he tells us it was premeditated.

He planned to have sex with her, and then beat her with his new skateboard. Which is exactly what he proceeded to do. There's very little in-depth content in this book about Korn really, it's all about Head and his 'Issues'. See what I did there?

I have far too many books to read to force myself to finish this rubbish. I didn't even get to the 'Save Me Jesus' bit, but I'm sure it was nonsense. He comes across as delusional and selfish, and I regret giving him (however indirectly) anymore of my money. This one is off to the charity shop. To the Jesus brigade charity shop in fact so they can keep it.

All in the family. I liked the story of Brian Welch's conversion. It is always a reason to rejoice when someone repents of their sins and commits their life to God.

The book was very graphic, and is therefore not for everyone to read. Brian goes deep in his description of his vices, only for the benefit of showing people that with God's help you can overcome your problems. I disagreed with Brian's view on speaking in tongues. I do not believe that you have to speak in tongues in order to get closer to God.

I am so glad that Brian is staying faithful to God, and being a good father for his daughter. The author is very honest and sincere about his experiences, both with Korn and his conversion to Christianity. Welch wasn't the most stable or happy person to begin with, and being a rock star took a serious toll on him.

Some people find it weak that Welch was unable to reconcile sobriety to rock n' roll (particularly since his ex-bandmate Jon Davis was able to do just that). However, everyone is different. It took a lot of courage for Welch to recognize his own limitations, and make the change The author is very honest and sincere about his experiences, both with Korn and his conversion to Christianity. Welch wasn't the most stable or happy person to begin with, and being a rock star took a serious toll on him.

Although Welch liberally sprinkles the 'I don't want to sound weird' caveats, I found the Christian half of his story unsettling (it's why I couldn't give the book more than two stars). It's sickening how some of the ministries Welch got involved with treated him like a celebrity prize, rather than a troubled soul searching desperately for peace. Of course, I recommend this to Korn fans.

Even if you think Welch is a freak (on a Jesus leash?), the book is a quick read. Although I don't personally agree with Welch's Christian philosophy, I genuinely hope his journey with Christ gives him the lasting peace he deserves. So, I just finished reading Save Me From Myself by Brian “Head” Welch (you know, the guy from Korn with the crazy long tendrils). What an incredible read! I devoured this book in, like, three days.

I just couldn’t put it down. A few adjectives that come to mind: Gripping. Be warned: it is an addictive page-turner from start to finish that will give you some pretty whacked out dreams if you read it right before going to bed (just so you know).

More than an autobiography, Sav So, I just finished reading Save Me From Myself by Brian “Head” Welch (you know, the guy from Korn with the crazy long tendrils). What an incredible read! I devoured this book in, like, three days.

I just couldn’t put it down. A few adjectives that come to mind: Gripping.

Be warned: it is an addictive page-turner from start to finish that will give you some pretty whacked out dreams if you read it right before going to bed (just so you know). More than an autobiography, Save Me From Myself is one man’s recount of finding faith, life and purpose in the midst of self-induced hell on earth.

Through most of his life Head seemingly had it all. As a founding member of Korn, one of the largest metal bands to hit the 90′s music scene, Head lived what many would call a fantasy life.

Earning millions of dollars a year, traveling the world, selling out stadiums throughout the country, Head was living a life many of us only dream about. However, there was a dark side.

Rage, loneliness, depression, dependence on alcohol and prescription pills as well as an addiction to meth kept Head numb to life and in a drunken, drug-filled stupor for years. Through a series of painful events Head realized if his life didn’t change his addiction would kill him, leaving his 5 year-old daughter, Jeanna, parentless. At the invitation of a trusted friend, Head attended church and there heard a message strong and clear about the power of God’s love. That night, while snorting a line of meth, Head reached out to God—-who reached back. In the second half of the book, Head shares the many, many changes that occurred in his life after he invited Jesus into his heart and gave God control of everything. While not an easy ride, and requiring time to heal from deep hurts, Head left Korn, quit drugs, sold most of his possessions and became the responsible, caring father his daughter deserved.

What I really appreciate about Head’s story is his honesty. In a straight-up, no-holds-barred manner, Head describes the gritty details of his life, his mistakes and his addictions. In his own words, it was Head’s intention to “describe the monster that I was prior to reaching out to God so that God would receive all props for the miraculous transformation that has occurred” in Head’s life since that night he threw out the lifeline. Since then, Head has penned many songs detailing the misery he put himself and others through as a consequence to his selfish and addictive behaviours and about the grace God offers everyday to begin anew.

Below is one of the first songs Head wrote after asking God to live in his heart, aptly titled “Save Me From Myself.” Save Me From Myself is the incredibly true story of one man’s encounter with a love that changed his life forever. If you do not believe in the power of transformation prior to reading this book, you certainly will by the time you turn the final page. I read this in two sittings. The first was Brian's telling of his life before he came to the Lord and the second was after. The first part was difficult to read, as it took me back a bit to my own prodigal times before the Lord pulled me out of the pit. Of course, I was never a rock star doing thousands of $$ of drugs daily.

But I was exposed enough to many of the things he wrote about to know the chaos and darkness Brian describes. It can sometimes feel a bit 'icky' to think back on things you I read this in two sittings. The first was Brian's telling of his life before he came to the Lord and the second was after.

It can sometimes feel a bit 'icky' to think back on things you did or felt while trying to fill the hole in your soul with things other than God. But reading the second half of the book was truly inspiring, as it reminded me of how God redeemed my life. I love how Brian's story shows how lives are generally not magically perfect and pain-free when you become a Christian. You still have 'issues' and sin to work out of your life.

Once you stop being 'numb' you truly feel both joy and pain. But it is truly worth it!

Thanks, Brian. And thank you,Jesus.

Whether or not you find Head’s message uplifting, it definitely makes for a fascinating read. Unlike most people likely to pick up this book, I was not a fan of Head’s music until he quit Korn and went solo, and I never had any feelings one way or the other about the manner in which he left the band. SAVE ME FROM MYSELF is more honest and self-aware than the typical rock star autobiography.

Unlike most people likely to pick up this book, I was not a fan of Head’s music until he quit Korn and went solo, and I never had any feelings one way or the other about the manner in which he left the band. SAVE ME FROM MYSELF is more honest and self-aware than the typical rock star autobiography. Head generally comes across as likable, but his anger problems and frequent violent outbursts diminish my respect for him. His newfound passion for Christ is admirable, but I question the way he attributes God’s guiding hand as an influence over every decision he makes.

Don’t get me wrong; I’m convinced God is working through his life. But, for example, when Head claims that God “downloaded” certain songs directly into his brain, I can’t help but wonder why God is such a second-rate lyricist. I’m not saying that God wasn’t somehow involved, but let’s not go overboard, OK?

I also feel that Head’s spiritual immaturity makes him susceptible to some wrong-headed notions. A primary is example is his misunderstanding of what the Bible actually teaches about speaking in tongues. Speaking in tongues is NOT making up your own babbling language for use in your own private prayer.

Also, I think Head should be more reluctant to surround himself with people claiming to be prophets—especially ones who believe they have a direct line to Christ himself. Head relates a story in which one such “prophecy” turns out to be almost correct. Sorry, but “almost” doesn’t cut it when it comes to legit prophecy. By Christian standards, SAVE ME FROM MYSELF is a very edgy book. The excesses involved in touring with Korn are often shocking (for those not familiar with the heavy metal lifestyle) and occasionally even hard to stomach.

Head doesn’t go into too much detail, but neither does he shy away from the degenerate nature of his pre-Christian life. The book also contains some very strong language for something you can (presumably) pick up at a Christian bookstore. Interestingly, Head is now back with Korn (and the band has never sounded better, in my opinion). Good for him. Like Alice Cooper, he continues to defy the Christian stereotype that I find so obnoxious.

I can’t wait to see what the future has in store for him. This was quite a book. First, I have to say that I have never been a fan of Korn (I do like some pretty raucous music, but they are just too heavy metal for my tastes) and although I was raised as a Lutheran I can't say I am a practicing Christian.

I loved this book. I added it to my Kindle reading list several months ago after hearing the author interviewed on an NPR show, and wanting to learn more about his story, because it sounded fascinating to me.

From what little I knew of the hard rock/heavy metal/mega-rock-star world, I could not imagine how someone who was so integrated into and successful in that world and everything that goes along with it could possibly make such a drastic change in his life. Or even why he would want to do that. The book answers all of those questions. It's fairly obvious the author is not a writer (and, in fact, in the epilogue he says he's never written anything other than papers in high school. Although he HAS written a lot of music.) But, that doesn't matter in the least because this is less like reading a book and more like having a conversation with a friend. A friend who wants to bare his soul, confess everything bad he's ever done in his life, wail, gnash his teeth, laugh, cry, scream.

And finally explain how and why he's following a different path now. I was particularly touched by the obvious love, care and concern Brian has for his daughter; some of the passages about how horrible he felt about his early relationship with her literally brought me to tears (as did some of the photographs of the two of them, because they are SO touching and beautiful.) He even managed to possibly convince me that SOME members of the Pentecostal Church MIGHT not be TOTALLY insane, and that's quite a feat because, frankly that is what I have always thought. (And it's unclear to me whether that church is where he ultimately ended up, but he did spend some time there.) I am so impressed by this man's story.

In spite of some of the sheer raw awfulness of his past life, I find it incredibly uplifting that he has succeeded in his struggles to turn it all around. It's a very inspiring, hopeful book. The book is sort of a mixture of Head's memoir, and his Christian testimony. It comes out as sort of an odd mixture.

As a memoir of his life and time with Korn it was interesting, and informative. Having grown up in the era of Korn, and having been a fan of their music in High School, I recall being thrilled when I learned that Head had became a Christian (a few years after I had), and was interested in learning more. In this book Head tells briefly of his childhood, his early musical endeavors (largely centering around the other members of the band until the final gelling and creation of Korn when Jonathan Davis became their vocalist), his family development, the span of Korn's career, and finally his own salvation, and his leaving the band. As strictly a testimony, I think that it often dwelt too long on past negatives of his life, with not enough spiritual payoff. It's not that he delved too deeply into his past life as to expound too much on the grizzly details; he did a fairly good job at painting the picture without being too vile (though there was some swearing in the book, which (sort of) surprised me - mostly quotations from conversations he'd had with people), but it seemed like the greater substance of the book was of his negative actions and former lifestyle, and it took a while to get to some of the redeeming content. 'The road to hell is paved with good intentions.' Brian 'Head' Welch's conversion to Christianity is a textbook example of a miracle, but by his own admission, not perfect.

Welch disclaims at the beginning of his book that he said and did a lot of bad things, so the autobiography was truly going to be warts and all. However, I believe this could have been accomplished without all of the sordid details. Like in the movies, it is enough for me to see a couple walk into the bedroom and shut the door, 'The road to hell is paved with good intentions.'

However, I believe this could have been accomplished without all of the sordid details.

Like in the movies, it is enough for me to see a couple walk into the bedroom and shut the door, I don't need more than. Given his audience Welch certainly is appealing to youth and I believe his story could have great influence on many teens who found themselves now feeling as he did in his early years, and that those kinds of details will push teens or others away from the life he once lived, I don't know, but for myself, I could have done without them. I can't imagine what it's like to write this kind of work knowing that the players are alive and possibly going to read the account, if not at least hear of it. Were I one of his former bandmates, ex-girlfriend or wife, or even an employee or acquaintance, I'm not sure that my reception of this book would be positive. 'Save Me From Myself' isn't just warts and all for Welch, it's warts and all for everyone mentioned, and that might sting, or worse, deeply hurt, which I imagine is the opposite of Welch's and God's desire.

Which leads to my last point: What is God's Will? It's an open-ended question and one that each individual has to surmise on his own, but Welch plays it a little too fast and loose for my liking.

Many times he takes an action that I think was self-serving and inconsiderate of the lives of others, all under the auspices of it being God's Will and what God had told him to do. As an example, the timing of Welch's announcement about leaving the band (taken by himself) hindered the rest of the band's negotiations with another label. If he had been thinking of others as more significant than himself (Philippians 2.3) than he could have delayed his announcement, causing no noticeable harm to the Kingdom of Christ, yet showing care for those in his sphere of influence.

It also might have gone a long way with his former bandmates. I would be dubious of his religion based on many of the actions he took. All-in-all the Kingdom of God and the world itself is a better place for Welch coming to a saving faith in Christ. I guess I just wish there didn't have to be so many bodies on the battlefield. A footnote– Welch falls into the east temptation of bashing 'organized religion' and 'mainstream denominations' that is too common in contemporary Christianity. It is an easy thing to place oneself outside of something and to highlight its fault while downplaying or ignoring its merits.

To my surprise I really enjoyed the book. I loved learning about a band member from one of the bands that I like. Overall it was a very good book.

This book was about Brian’s life story. He talks a lot about his interest in music. His music interest influences his life greatly. He was a guitarist in the band Korn, but he had to quit the band to be there for his daughter. Although he loved writing music with his friends and making music on stage, his friends were also a bad influence on him. Because of them Brian had a terrible drug addiction.

He was addicted to meth, and he was also an alcoholic. This biography talked about his journey to recovery.

With the help of God, and Brian’s new found faith, he managed to get rid of his addictions. Brian is the main character, and is also the author. He seems like a very kind and nice person, when he was not on drugs. He was just a little rough around the edges. He had long dreadlocks. He was also very skinny from all the drugs he had been using.

Brian was also married at one point. His ex-wife’s name was Rebekah. Rebekah was described as a skater girl when he first met her. He had a daughter with Rebekah before they were married. Their daughters name was Jennea.

He doesn’t describe Jennea’s appearance very much. After Rebekah left Brian for a different guy, Brian had to raise Jennea on his own. The book happened during the 2000’s to the present. The beginning of the story took place in Bakersfield, California. Bakersfield is Brian's hometown. The rest of the story mostly took place while the band Korn was on tour. Brian was on tour a lot with the band.

I thought it was strange that he was never really home for his daughter. I think the main reason why Brian Welch told this story was because of his newly found faith. I believe he wanted to help people and inspire them.

He wanted to get the word out that you can do anything that you want with God’s help. He explained that he never would have been able to quit his bad habits without his faith and the help of the Lord. I would recommend this book to anyone of the high school age.

There is a lot written about drugs in this book because of Brian’s addiction. Because of that I would recommend this book to a more mature person.

Inspiring and courageous testimony! When Korn was big in the 90s, I was listening to alternative rock like REM. I was never a metal head, so when a friend gave me this book to read, I didn't even know who Korn was.

As it turns out, you don't really need to know Korn to appreciate the amazing journey of faith that Brian 'Head' Welch took and relates in this book. Brian is not the best of writers, but for this book that isn't really the point. He writes well enough to give his testimony of being saved from the grip of meth addiction, depression, anger, and money addictions. This book isn't really even about Brian, but about God.

As a believer, I was inspired by how God worked and continues to work in Brian's life. I need to be reminded that God still performs miracles and he is still at work.

That's why I liked this book. Not for the writing quality, but for the impetus it gave me to keep working on my relationship with Jesus. By the way, Brian makes it clear that he didn't find religion, he found a relationship. True Christianity isn't about how many times you go to church or which denomination you choose (if you choose one at all).

The Christian walk is about a relationship with Jesus, and that relationship can save your life. Brian's friend Eric said it well in an email to Brian when he wrote: 'Going to church does not make you a Christian anymore than sitting in a garage makes you a car. A relationship with Jesus is personal' (p.125). Brian later writes about Jesus: 'He deserves everything that I am, so for the rest of my life, I'm going to try and give him everything that I am' (p.147). I think Brian best sums up his walk with Jesus when he writes: 'I can't sit here and tell you that my life finally ended up perfect after sticking with God, but I can tell you this: It's all worth it because God is very real and I can get through anything and everything I have to in this life, good or bad, because god loves me, and I love God. Period' (p.217). If you know anyone struggling with drug addiction, is a metal head of the 90s, or has questions about God and Jesus, this might just be the perfect book to recommend.

The writing is simple but honest, unflinching, and real. No Bible banging, just straight up talk from a rocker whose life was radically changed when he turned it over to Jesus.

The author, Brian “Head” Welch, was once lead guitarist of Korn, the highly-successful million-dollar-earning heavy rock (aka “nu-metal”) band. His story is staggering in its retelling of his past excesses.

His story is staggering in its retelling of his past excesses. He was dangerously addicted to methamphetamines and alcohol, enslaved to a temper that led to spousal abuse, broken by selfishness and depression that poisoned all his relationships and threatened to endanger his young daughter.

Plus he was soon a single father, and clueless as to how to raise his kid. But at the same time, his story is a brilliant testimony to the power of God’s grace, how the Lord can soften even the hardest heart, and free the most enslaved prisoner to sin. From spoiled multimillionaire rock star, Welch was slowly transformed into a devoted father, from wasted addict and silent rebel to surrendered Christian. The autobiography takes his gutter moments and shows the reader exactly how impossible his turnaround is, if looked at from a totally human perspective. You read his descriptions of the hedonistic lifestyle he was leading and understand that he was searching for peace in all the wrong places, and in all the wrong substances.

In the latter half of the book, your jaw drops and your tears fall when Welch describes how he quits cold turkey relying only on God to cure his addiction, begins to learn about the Lord, attends church, finds solace in Sacred Scripture and in visiting the poor in orphanages. Truly an astounding conversion, an intense tale told simply and without flowery phrasing, expressing the faith of someone who found Christ and eventually found his own identity within the wounds of the Savior. Originally posted on. I really liked reading “Save Me From Myself” by Brian “Head” Welch.

It was a book that is about a man who is living the rockstar’s dream, having all the girls, money, and drugs and fame that you could ever want. The issue is his life still doesn't seem complete. He found himself in hard times. He was the lead guitarist of the rock band, Korn. Brian had some strong addictions and in the end found himself wrapped up in doing crystal meth and being highly addicted.

He was the lead guitarist of the rock band, Korn. Brian had some strong addictions and in the end found himself wrapped up in doing crystal meth and being highly addicted. He also has a daughter named Jenna. One day he finds himself asking for Jesus Christ to come into his life and forgive him for his sins and take his drug addiction away.That's exactly what happened. He quit using drugs, quit Korn and stayed at home with Jenna and started going to church a lot. The main character in this book is Brian “Head” Welch.

The story is all about his life. He is currently reunited with Korn and also has his new solo project called Love and Death. He is 43 years old and still has a passion for his heavy metal and Jesus Christ. Today he is on tour with Korn and Love and Death. Both bands recently released new albums. He is still clean of drugs and alcohol.

Another important character would be his daughter Jenna. The setting doesn't really impact what happened all that much. His struggles he faced could have happened to him in any time period he was alive. I would give this book a 5- star rating. It was an awesome book and that is saying a lot because I really do not enjoy reading but i really like this book I would recommend to high schoolers and young adults to read, especially if you have are Christian or a hardcore rocker.

This is the first book that I have completed in a long time, and it was hard to put down. It connected with me and deeply impacted me, but I could see how some people would unfortunately quit prematurely. There is no real seeking of a higher power or interest in God until the second half.

The first half is uncensored, blunt, dark reality. It is a person's honest account of the process and world of addiction.

I'm not saying that this book is 'for addicts only'- it absolutely isn't- but I could see somebody without an addicts brain getting frustrated and thinking 'Just. I appreciated the first half, because it gives a lot of context and it drew me in since I connected with Brian's experience.

Also, revealing stuff like that is hard. And I figured, if he is this transparent and honest about this, then I can't wait to find out what his experience in getting to know Christ is like.

I was NOT disappointed. The second half was so interesting and inspiring to read. Brian expresses every layer, every element of what is like to newly discover a loving God. He describes everything with transparency, and I mean everything: The spiritual highs, the spiritual dry spells. The back-and-forth 'dip my toe in the water and then take it out' of faith. The insights, the backslides. The continued struggles with depression and addiction.

The intensity of the love and unexpected insights from God. The experience of having no idea what this 'Christianity' thing is, and going into it. I closed this book thinking 'OK, cool. What an honest, raw, open, and inspirational story. I am inspired to go even deeper in my journey. Sex, drugs, and rock and roll couldn't satisfy Brian 'Head' Welch's soul.

Private jets, limousines, hundreds of willing women after each concert, big-balling it with Snoop Dogg, Ice Cube, Limp Bizkit, and others of like-fame did nothing for Brian, lead guitarist for the ultra-metal rock band Korn. The beginning of Brian's wake up call came one day when he overheard his little Daughter Jeanna playfully skipping and singing one of Korn's songs ('All Day I Dream About Sex'). The inner struggle he'd already been experiencing (which included an out-of-control addiction to speed/meth, alcohol, xanax, vicodin, and occassional cocaine) escalated to such intensity that Brian ultimately cried out to Jesus for deliverance. Always ever-faithful, Jesus showed up and showed out, radically delivering Brian from all of his many addictions (as only Jesus can!!!).

Fans will probably remember media coverage of Brian's conversion as reported on CNN and MTV at the time. Soon after receiving Christ as his Savior, Brian left grammy-winning Korn; at the time, the band was on the verge of signing perhaps their largest record deal yet, having already sold multiple millions of records worldwide from their first six albums. None of that mattered to Brian anymore though, having met the King of kings and Lord of lords. He'd finally found the only true and lasting satisfaction for the soul, the Son of God Himself. Read Brian's testimony and be blessed. Christ's power is available to you too! So my review on this book was good i honestly had some good relations to this book not the heroin but i had some problems and while reading this book i was in a bad state at the time.

I was going through a lot and while reading i had so many thoughts and could relate to this book so much and after reading it i was better it helped me realize a lot and i really love this book. Like in this book Brian was talking about his dad was a alcoholic and his dad wasn't abusive but he was a different perso so my review on this book was good i honestly had some good relations to this book not the heroin but i had some problems and while reading this book i was in a bad state at the time. I was going through a lot and while reading i had so many thoughts and could relate to this book so much and after reading it i was better it helped me realize a lot and i really love this book. I liked this book. As a former HUGE fan of Korn, I remember when Head 'went Christian', and I was more interested in his story as I developed my own relationship with God. The first half of this book is incredible. It's wrenching, violent, sad, and an honest testimony to what God can do in one person's life.

The second half was good, but probably a bit weird for someone that is not a Christian or new to the Christian faith. Because, well, it was all a little weird for me too. Head goes from talk I liked this book.

Head goes from talking about being a new Christian to speaking in tongues in a chapter or two, and from there it's talk about prophecy, dreams from God, etc, etc. Now, it's not that I don't believe in those things (they are in the Bible), but maybe a slower transition or more background dialog for the readers would have been helpful.

It was a lot to take in, all in a short period of time. Other than that, this is an incredible book that gives the reader an inside view of the music industry and a behind-the-scenes look at the band, but more importantly, an in-the-gutter account of one person's life and the life-altering power of God. Well, this was very insightful to understand the reasoning of 'head' when he decided to become christian, and quit Korn. Korn is my favorite band. I remember when I heard the news about Head leaving the band, it was a surprise to me, and I couldn't quite understand it. I thought, ok, he became a christian, Why does he need to quit the band?

This book explains all of that, and gives some view into the band, that I never had before. It was very interesting.

It was very interesting. Now, I just wish to understand, what's his thought process about being back and touring with korn. By the way, I saw them live last week, and the show was fucking awesome!! He gave me, in my hand, a bottle of water, and a guitar pick. And my handsome Jonathan Davis sent me a kiss!

Really excellent book. It's fascinating to see behind the scenes into what was happening with Korn back during their heyday. Equally as fascinating is the spiritual transformation Welch went through as he came to know Jesus and was delivered from his addictions. Welch emphasizes that his transformation didn't happen overnight. Even though there was a moment when he was finally delivered from his drug addiction, there were many 'false starts' before he finally got to that point. That's true addict Really excellent book.

The starting/stopping, starting/stopping, wondering if you'll ever be free. Another moment that sticks out to me from the book is when Welch talks to one of his pastors about speaking in tongues and the guy can't handle it. I totally related to this moment since I've had similar reactions from people in the church when confronted with things that are plainly stated in the Bible.

They've got their religious traditions and nothing in the Bible will change them. I also really enjoyed the writing style: plain, simple, honest, easy to read. I definitely recommend this book for anybody who is interested in learning more about Korn or Welch and his spiritual conversion. Well, first of all, it took me a few hours to read this book. I started in the evening, got some sleep at night and then right after waking up early in the morning, I went back to reading and finished the book.

I liked it for being quite honest and open - and not even the part before Brian got saved, but after he surrendered his life to God. It's one thing to just want to change one's life dramatically (and often, accepting Christ is such a change), but a lot of biographies end up 'The Well, first of all, it took me a few hours to read this book.

It's one thing to just want to change one's life dramatically (and often, accepting Christ is such a change), but a lot of biographies end up 'They lived happily ever after' and leave out the actual struggle of REMAINING true to one's beliefs when life is not all white and fluffy. The only thing that got me somewhat sidetracked was the topic of speaking in tongues. While I believe that speaking in tongues can be a gift that God gives to people, I don't believe everyone should 'work' on getting that gift. Perhaps I lack personal experience of speaking in tongues, but. Otherwise the book is quite a page-turner and it's full of hope and encouragement.

This book was a good read that I couldn't put down. Usually when I finish a book, I feel a sense of accomplishment and am glad that I finished the journey. But, with this book, I really wished it would have went on for another three hundred pages. It was just so engaging. Brian's life will have you shocked, awed, and inspired, ready to start up that old garage band again. He talks about his days on tour and his days cleaning up from a major rockstar sized drug addiction.

Both sides of the tale, I couldn't get enough of. Then I got to be a backstage security guard at one of his shows here in clarksville. That was awesome!

I was in the same small room with him and his new band. I was so starstruck, kind of funny. They rocked the stage that night!!!

I would recommend this book to any adult who enjoys rock and roll and spiritual journey. Reading about the days of Korn brought me back to my grade school days.

Korn was great! I remember so much of who they were, what they did musically, and how they smashed the hits at woodstock 1999. Do yourselves a favor and go buy this book. It's for the lost and the found. God confirmed so much to me in reading Welch's story, about my own personal ministry, my music, where I am in my walk with Him, answers to questions only God could've known, they were buried so deep in my heart. It's a fast, easy read-only took me about three days.

You're going to love how conversational it is and, while there is a bit of language in it, it's REAL and it's RAW and Holy Spirit shines through This. Do yourselves a favor and go buy this book.

God's grace through Welch's story will rock your socks off. Go get it and you can thank me later. As for technicalities, like I said, it's an easy read. It's probably at about a 6th grade level, so don't go into expecting a Macarthur, Edwards, or Piper type of read-which is part of the reason why the book is so great.

Don't get me wrong; a thoroughly enjoy the above authors, but Welch has a way of making theology so simple and pure, showcasing that there is indeed no need for bells nd whistles. The first half of the book chronicles Welch's life before Christ.

The second details his salvation experience and the growth therein. I love the obvious shift as readers move from 'old man' to 'new creation in Christ' that we can actually read and feel in Welch's writing. In the first half, it's as if we can feel the pain and hopelessness he experienced. With moving on to the second half, however, we then feel the lift and the entrance of light.

For those new to the salvation journey, Welch explains every little detail. I never felt talked down to or as if Welch was acting high and mighty, which brings me to another important point. While Welch's mission in his writing is to reach the lost, I believe his book captures the very essence of what it's like for Christians, those already in Christ, to struggle in this journey, and how real this relationship is for anyone in it. Welch is so descriptive and detailed that he pulls his readers into the hole with him in an effort to better help them understand just how far Christ went to save him and them.

Then he takes them along for the ride of a lifetime as he discovers more and more of who our Triune God really is. I noticed few reviews about the chapter on tongues.

I personally don't carry an issue with tongues; I pray in tongues myself. Welch is correct in that it's biblical and I do believe it strengthens our faith because this is one way the Holy Spirit intercedes on our behalf.

This is also biblical and he cites biblical reference MANY times throughout the book, including in this chapter. But I don't think one is required to speak in tongues in order to be closer to God. This is simply because not every single person will tap into this gift, which I'm sure Welch is aware of. It's not a deal-breaker for God if one doesn't speak in tongues. However, I don't feel that that's Welch's message in the first place. Whether you believe in tongues or not, go into this chapter with an open mind, and do your own exegesis on 1 Corinthians 14; ask the Holy Spirit to guide your reading and understanding. Throughout the book's entire, I encourage readers, in general, to listen to Welch's heart.

The book is beautifully written in that it's conversational, honest, and full of hope. You'll not regret reading it! “It must grieve God’s heart when he sees Christians fighting about whose doctrine is right; he doesn’t see denominations, he sees one big glorious bride. When Christians argue about doctrinal issues, all he sees is carnal people acting like children.

All that prideful, controlling religious crap is what drives young people away from churches, and it has to go. Much of the world’s population is under the age of eighteen, and we have to bring the love of Christ to them without all this controlling crap going on. Because, where the spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” —.
